Comments
The good weather and good progress continue. Another four CTDs and a trace metal sampling station completed. We have crossed the Subantarctic Front and the stations are now a little more widely spaced, giving people a chance to take a breath and catch up with samples collected over the last two days. Everyone is enjoying seeing the sun for a change. Cheers, Steve and Deepy.
